*This workshop is intended for Mental Health Professionals*

For therapists who work with teens, we know that navigating all the complexities of adolescent treatment can be tricky, and it often requires us to consider many ethical dilemmas. In this ethics workshop, participants will explore common ethical challenges that arise when treating teens—such as navigating confidentiality/privacy, managing risky behaviors, and supporting families with diverse parenting styles—while learning to distinguish between internalized and externalized expressions of teen emotion, including substance use, self-harm, suicidality, and trauma disclosures. Grounded in systems theory, this training will highlight how therapeutic outcomes improve when clinicians understand the interconnected roles, patterns, and dynamics within the teen’s broader family system. Participants will develop or deepen skills in applying systemic case conceptualization across various treatment settings. Attendees will also leave with concrete, evidence-informed interventions designed to ethically and effectively engage both teens and their caregivers. 

This workshop will focus on utilizing case examples and discussions to assist therapists in grappling with these ethical dilemmas in real time, so they may leave with a more grounded understanding of supporting teens and their families ethically in their practice moving forward. 

Objectives:

1. Participants will learn how to effectively navigate different ethical issues related to teens and their families, understanding the differences between internalized and externalized teen expression of emotions (i.e., teen substance use, self-harm, suicidality, reported trauma, and managing different types of parenting styles)

2. Participants will gain/deepen an understanding of the benefits of utilizing systems theory in different treatment settings as well as with different members of the family system

3. Participants will gain clinical interventions to effectively treat the teen and family system, while maintaining appropriate and ethical confidentiality/privacy standards.
